Bubs turned Posterior

Had my 36 weeks app with OB and turns out bub has gone into posterior position. She's been really good up until now, last week he said she wasn't!!
I had a feeling that something wasn't quite right as I've had extremely bad sharp back pains since Friday, and nothing seems to be easing it. And the braxton hicks have increased in tension and are coming more often. Plus I'm going to the toilet HEAPS more!
Is there anything I can do to help bub turn around, and to help with the back pain. I always sit up right, don't sit for too long, I get in the pool and paddle up and down with the board, I have a gym ball which I sit on, and lean over when the pain is too bad. I also use a hot pack and/or have a hot shower. I even went to Bowen Therapy (which normally helps me) but that hasn't done a thing!

Hi Jodi- sorry i can't offer any advice but i'm sure there r woman on here that can provide u with suggestions. Just wanted to say that one good thing about the posterier bubs that i've known is that they have lovely round heads :) Good luck!

Obstetric accupuncture, optimal fetal positioning (article on main site), moxa sticks - plus faith in your baby to turn. I have supported women who's babies have turned posterior in a time of stress but then when they were in labour they had moved back. Also babies that have been fine, but when in labour and mum was stressed, baby turned posterior. Sometimes because of the position of the placenta it can encourage posterior babies - i.e. low anterior placentas. But rest assured, a posterior baby can be born and without pain relief, you can adapt positions in labour to relive backpain and help baby move. Perhaps look into hypnobirthing if you can and look up things you can do to relieve backache labour because if you want to avoid drugs, its best to get some ideas now than worry in labour. Spinningbabies website is great.

My 2nd was born posterior. No one knew untill i was in the pushing stage & I did the whole 14.5hr labour with out any pain relief.

Lots of mums do posterior labour without pain relief, so try not to get too worried about it. You still have a few weeks to go, so something may happen in the meantime! Lets keep our knees below our pelvis to make sure!
